Episode notes

The first step to changing your state involves making a radical change in your physiology. This can be achieved through activities like sprinting, push-ups, dancing, or splashing cold water on your face. The key is to alter how you feel quickly. The second step is shifting your focus. By concentrating intensely on a single task and directing all your energy towards it, you can enhance your performance. It's important to focus on what you want to achieve rather than on obstacles or challenges. The final step is adjusting your story. The narrative you tell yourself can significantly impact your mindset. By reframing your story to be positive and empowering, you can elevate your state of mind and performance. These three steps, focusing on physiology, focus, and story, are essential for effectively changing your state and optimizing your performance.

Every year, 25 million people download Shaan’s podcast. Sure, he’s a brilliant entrepreneur, investor, and writer, but there’s one skill in particular that keeps Shaan’s audience coming back for more: storytelling.

And not the kind of storytelling that feels like an IQ contest. (I know you know what I mean.) Shaan tells stories that burst with aliveness, that make readers laugh out loud with joy or fall silent with understanding. And as a result, he’s built more than just a following; he’s built a fandom.

In this episode, Shaan reveals every framework he knows for telling stories so well they make your reader go, “Wait, how did they do that?”. And I mean, every framework. You won’t find this in the ole’ self-help aisle. Plus, he shows you exactly how to do it. We deconstruct everything from popular movies to business origin stories to viral Twitter threads.

Stories are the #1 way to grab readers’ attention, get them to like you, and ultimately, turn them into fans. And this episode is a masterclass on how to do it.
